Terrible Beating.

The noise of a row in the saloon un-
der the Theater Comique attracted the
attention of the police at o'clock yes
:erday morning. Sergeant Leonard,
with Officers McNulty and Collins, en-
tered the saloon and in the dark pas
sage way leading to the restaurant i'll
another part of the building found the
apparently lifeless body of man. Three
men ran out of the back door into the
darkness. They were fired at repeat
edly by the sergeant, and the noise at
tracted the attention Of Patrolman
Schroeder and McAlpine, who arrested
the men as they came running up Sec
Ond avenue to Third street. They
proved to be Ted Quinlan, "Spike"

badly cut about the head, but recovered
consciousness shortly. Surgeon Kelly
dressed his wounds and pronounced
none of them serious. Loft says he pre-
viOusly had row with Wise. who fol-
lowed him into the saloon with TrainOr
and Quinlan. He says they meant to
give him a whipping and endeavOred to
escape by the back door. The three

sage way, beating him with stones and
some sharp instrument.

sible to present these plays here during
this engagement, if the plays mentioned
are in his repertoire? 1t was rumOred
last night in the foyer that Manager
Mack had special scenery for this pro-
ductiOn. 1t would seem wise to give
these two great plays during the stay
here. Gentlemen. let us hear from you.
NOTES.
Notwithstanding the strong attrac-
tiOns elsewhere this week Our Boys"
at the Peoples theater, continues to
draw large and delighted audiences,
and will no doubt prove financial. as
it certainly is a dramatic. success. The
management of this house has rendered
to the Lodge of Elks of this city grand
benefit, to take place Friday afternoon
and evening, Dec. =. The stock COM
pany and host of volunteers will ap-
pear in programme of superior excel
ience. Tickets can be obtained of any
member of the lodge. Thursday,
THANKSGIVING day, an extra matinee
will be given.
Large audiences continue to greet
George Wilson's humorous oddities at
the Hennepin Avenue theater. Last
night the house was again filed and the
audience cOnvulsed by the new jokes
and absurd situations of this splendid
company. This company will remain the
feature for the remainder of the week,
with Thursday and Saturday matinees.
Mr.. Sackett of the firm of Sackett IL
Virgins, declares that he is ready to
close the Hennepin Avenue theater and
also the dime museum when the author
tiles announce that all places of amuse-
ment. including the war panorama, are
to be compelled to shut up shop on
Sunday.
W. H. Foster, the manager of the
Boston Ideals, was in the city yester-
day arranging for the engagement next
week. The advance sale is announced
to commence Friday at a. m. in the
managers office.
Next week. opening Thursday night,
the inimitable John Dillon will take the
town by storm, at the Hennepin. to be
followed the week after by the Rag

day was given to crowded house.
Our Boys will be the bill for the spe
cial matinee tomorrow.

Grand will commence at 2:30. In addi-
ton there will be the usual Saturday
matinee.

"CLOCKS AND WATCHES"
DIR. Parker's Lecture at the First
Baptist Church.

The First Baptist church was we'll
filled last night. The occasion was the
presence of DR.. Parker, the eminent
London divine, who delivered his famous
lecture, Clocks and Watches" He was
introduced in a few pleasant words
by DIR. Chase. pastor of the church.
DIR. Parker at once arose and began his
lecture without preface. 4 rigidly plain
suit of brOadclOth adorned his person,
and his strong, noble face and individ-
uality caught the audience Immediately
and sWayed them to the end. In his
lecture, which was magnificent effort.
rPplete with flashes of human
nature, tender, manly advice to the
young. kind words of hope and faith to
all, and told in the most felicitOuS of
language, he showed himself to be
geninS, a philosopher teeming with sim
lie and anceable, an inimitable actor.
bright in repartee anecdOte and a mas
ter of the art of mimicry. One could
only say this was indeed a man fit for
the friendship and love of Beecher.
The subject chosen by the speaker bore
the odd title Of"ClOckS and Watches" 1t
was not by any means mechanical re-
view of the useful little timekeeperS, but
by comparing the hands and wheels of
the watches and clocks with the Sympa-
thieS. and the energies. and the hopes of
mankind, he ranged over a wide field
of human errors and joys and goodness,
and taught magnificent lesson, full of
the brOadeSt humanity, and closing with
a pathetic appeal that even if they
would forget the speaker there might be
some young man present who would
treasure up what the speaker had said
on this Tuesday night. in the Baptist
church in the city of Minneapolis. when
the speaker himself was many, many
thousands of miles away from home.
Henry Georges Visit.
The central committee of the United
Labor party met at the office of the

Tale ofa Checkered Front.

In the case of James T. Harrison
against Thomas l.. ROsser. the jury re-
turned a verdict for 1921 2s for the de-
fendant. 1t appears that Harrison
rented building of Rosser at a Wash
ington avenue south for clothing
store. He had the building entirely re-
painted in black and white
squares to represent checker
board, and advertised extensively
as the proprietor of the Checker board
clothing store. After this ROSser had
the checker-bOard painted out, and Har-
risOn claimed it injured his business
and refused to pay his rent unless he
was allowed $500 damages. 1t was for
this amount of damages that the suit
was brought.

constant menace TO the prosperity and
progress of the vast territory that must
one day become the principal residence
portion of the city. 1t seems right that
steps be taken to remedy the evil, but
council has never had the courage to
face the situation as it is, and the nego-
tatiOns with the railroad company have
come to naught. The people living in
the Eighth and Thirteenth wards have
called a meeting, to be held this even
ing at the relief association hall, on
Lake street, near Stevens avenue. 1t is
called to discuss the situation and all
persons interested either for or against
an abatement of the present nuisance
are urged to be present. The people
want an expression of opinion and want
to give the council an idea of the state
of local feeling. All citizens are invited
to be present and give their views.

UP TO DATE.
The Police Have q Probable MUIR
derer, and Still They Haven't.

The TOlIefsOn murder mystery is still
something of a mystery. Although
Peter Barrett, 1.-The man out of town, =
who was wanted. was arrested at Omaha
Monday, the police are as close
mOuthed as ever. Nevertheless
certain intimatiOnS or rather
iuSinuatiOnS, have cropped out upon
which several sensational newspaper
accounts of the exact way in which the
murder occurred have been built up by
imaginative reporters. The man ar
rested at Omaha is without doubt Peter
Barrett, and not Peter Baxter,
as has been several times an
nOunced. The Barrett family includes
five sons, all of whom are distinguished
by predisposition to red hair and gen
eral toughness. The family split mp
and daughter living in Minneapolis,
while the mother and two SONS
reside at Omaha. After Tim Bar
rett's arrest for highway robbery
the police in some way learned of his
probable connection with the murder.
and later on it was discovered that an
other brother. Peter Barrett, who had
disappeared shortly after the murder.
was in Omaha. Whether it was through
the revelations of family quarrel or by
the confessions of Tim Barrett it is not
known. but at all events the police Sc
cured evidence which will doubtless be
sufficient to implicate the two, and per-
haps others. There is little doubt that
the murdered drivers cash box has been
discovered and is now in hands of the
police, and there are other indications
pointing to the probability that the
right trail has been struck at last. In
spectOr Kinney left for Omaha Friday
and by the aid of the police there Sc

last night left for Omaha, and the, result
of his visit will be awaited with some
anxiety by the police authorities. A
reward of $2,250 has been offered
for the arrest of TOllefSOn' s
murderer. $1,000 by the city. $500 by the
county. $500 by the street ear company
and $3.50 10y the Street Car Drivers
union. This amount, it is reported, has
been sufficient to arouse the cupidity of
the Omaha officials, and they are
likely to claim the reward,
to this end resisting the removal of
Barrett TO Minneapolis. This cOmplica-
ton may occasion some delay in devel-
oping the case. Henry Barrett, a third
brother, who was in Jail for running a
blind pig at the time of Tim Barrett
arrest, was released upon paying his
fine, but is under surveillance, so it is
likely that he will be connected with the
